17 weeks


How far along: 17 weeks
Gender Prediction: Boy
Weight gain: 14 lbs. 
Maternity clothes: Still just wearing maternity leggings most of the time but have bought some new maternity jeans.
Stretch marks: No
Belly button in or out: In
Sleep: Sleeping well minus midnight hunger pains! I need to go back to the dorm room days & keep a mini fridge next to the bed.
Best moment this week: cashing in the gift certificate for a facial that Jess got me for Christmas
Worst moment this week: I actually experienced the whole "peeing in your pants when you sneeze" situation. It's a real thing.
Miss anything: I miss fitting into all of my clothes, this is the really awkward stage where your belly is big but you maybe don't look all that pregnant? Maternity clothes are too big but everything else is too small.
Movement: Still just little things. This is truly the best part of being pregnant. Well, other than food.
Cravings:  red velvet cupcakes, animal crackers, jamba juice, grapefruit... you know you're pregnant when you raid your toddler's snack stash on the reg.
Queasy or sick: feeling good


Looking forward to: Dr. appt on thurs. can't wait to hear little bugs heartbeat and schedule the ultra sound to find out gender :)

15 weeks


How far along: 15 weeks
Gender Prediction: Boy
Weight gain: I really feel like I popped this week, my belly feels so much bigger & I can no longer button my jeans. 11 lbs
Maternity clothes: Not quite yet but just pulled out all of my stuff from last time. 
Stretch marks: Nope
Belly button in or out: In
Sleep: I have been sleeping with a body pillow for the last few weeks & it is heavenly!! During my last pregnancy, I remember feeling like my body pillow was such a lifesaver & I wished I had started using it sooner. This body pillow is beyond amazing & has helped so much with my tailbone pain. I sleep snug as a bug in a rug!! ;)
Best moment this week: going to Snowbird for an overnight getaway
Worst moment this week: being sick
Miss anything:  A pair of jeans that fit... at all.
Movement: Still just a few flutters & rolls here and there. Ready for some kicks & for Jess and Sienna to be able to feel them!
Cravings: grapefruit & anything "refreshing & fruity". And Mexican food.... if I could have a bottomless bowl of chips & queso to eat all day I would be such a happy camper!
Queasy or sick: Feeling good!
Looking forward to: finding out if baby boo is a boy or girl!
